Abstract
Human papilloma virus type 16 (HPV16) related sequences were detected in two EBV-negative nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell lines derived from two well-differentiated NPC by polymerase chain reaction. E2 and E6 related sequences of HPV16 were demonstrated using two pairs of pri mers derived from these two regions. DNA sequence analysis of amplifie d products excluded the possibility of laboratory viral DNA contaminat ion. (C) 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
